She leaves behind her husband Nick and their four children. She was 41. Two of their children attend Holy Family Catholic School, Menai. Family friend and school parent Hayley Woodward says many people in the school community want to help the family after the tragic loss. "My kids attend the school and our kids play soccer together for Bangor Soccer Club," she said. "My husband Craig from Menai Music has also united with Club Central to hold a benefit night to help raise funds for the family and support them through a difficult time," she said. "They have been working their way through life and the new circumstances of not only losing their mum/wife but trying to grieve and look after the four kids. Coming into Christmas, it's the first one without their mum around. We want to bring the community together to help in some way." Mrs Palisi was a member, coach and a manager of the Barden Ridgebacks Netball Club. Her daughters also played for the club. She was well-known in the local sporting community. "Until her funeral we didn't really have any appreciation of the size of her network," her husband Nick said. "The amount of people she knows, and the amount of people who know us because of her, it's incredible." A total of $78,430 was also raised for the family through a "The support is unbelievable," Mr Palisi said. "It's blown our minds. You can't put into words how grateful we are. [The Woodwards] have taken us under their wing and they're promoting the community to back us. People like that are pretty rare." He said the family was learning to cope with the loss. "It was very unexpected. Unfortunately it seems her heart was the culprit. Every day is a new challenge," he said. "We learn something new but we roll with it. 'We've had three birthdays since Kate passed...we are going to try to keep things the same as what we would have done for Christmas previously - spending time with family. There will be a lot of reflecting. For me it's still a matter of keeping the Christmas spirit and making sure the kids have a pleasant time, and that it's not too taxing - that they still get to enjoy their childhood." Mrs Palisi's favourite colour was purple, so the idea is to have the room at the fundraiser filled with splashes of purple. The over 18s event is on Saturday, December 7, from 6.30pm-11pm at Club Central Menai. There will be live music, trivia and an auction with prizes. Cost is $50 per ticket.

Lions head into NFC title game rematch vs. 49ers seeking top seed more than revengeThe Majority Leader of the Senate, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele (APC, Kwara), has addressed misconceptions surrounding the four Tax Reform Bills currently before the National Assembly. In a statement released on Wednesday to mark the Christmas celebration, Senator Bamidele dismissed claims about the derivation model in the Bills as “utterly incorrect and unfounded.” “The proposed tax reform bills, described as executive legislation, include a review of derivations to states. Under the new model, Kano State’s share would rise from 0.89 per cent to 6.17 per cent, while Zamfara State’s allocation would increase from 0.05 per cent to 1.21 per cent. “However, Lagos State, which currently receives 80.26 per cent, would see a significant reduction to 15.28 per cent, representing an 81 per cent decrease. Rivers State’s share would also drop from 7.74 per cent to 4.6 per cent, marking a 41 per cent reduction,” he stated. Additionally, the Bills propose tax exemptions for employees earning ₦1,000,000 annually (₦83,000 monthly), as well as for start-ups, shared services, and technologically-driven businesses. They also recommend zero VAT on essential services and consumables. The reform Bills have sparked debates, particularly from northern governors, who have labelled them ‘anti-North’. Similarly, members of the National Assembly from across the country have expressed divergent views on the proposed VAT sharing formula in the proposed legislation. LEADERSHIP reports that the National Economic Council (NEC), led by Vice President Kashim Shettima, had earlier urged President Bola Tinubu to withdraw the Bills for further consultation. However, the President insisted that all concerns be addressed within the ongoing legislative process on the Bills. Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State recently criticised the reforms, claiming they would disproportionately benefit Lagos State, the President’s home state. However, Senator Bamidele emphasised that the reforms aimed to foster an environment conducive to business, investment, and economic growth. “We are committed to building an environment where businesses can operate seamlessly; where investors are confident, and where Nigerians can thrive without undue burdens,” he said. He noted that the reforms, including the Tax Reform Bills, National Minimum Wage Act, and Investment and Securities Act, were designed to reverse troubling economic indicators. He reassured Nigerians that the reforms were guided by principles of equity, fairness, and justice. “Contrary to misconceptions, the Tax Reform Bills exempt all employees earning ₦1,000,000 annually, support start-ups and technological services, and propose zero VAT on essential goods and services,” he clarified. Addressing the Christmas season, the Senate Leader highlighted the importance of gratitude, reflection, and compassion. He urged Nigerians to remember the needy, reflect on Christ’s mission, and pray for the country’s economic recovery, political stability, and unity. “As we celebrate, let us recommit to the development of our nation. This is not the time to search for greener pastures abroad but to join hands to rebuild and rebrand our homeland,” he stated. President Tinubu, during his recent Presidential Media Chat, affirmed his commitment to reforming Nigeria’s tax system, stressing that “tax amendments require negotiation and consensus.” He reassured Nigerians that while the reforms may be challenging, they were necessary to secure the nation’s future. Senator Bamidele concluded his message with warm wishes for the festive season: “With all my heart, I wish you all happy celebrations in this season of deep reflection. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance.”

CHANDLER, Ariz. — History has been made as the St. Mary's Knights have become the first-ever champions of the 4A conference in girls flag football. This has been an incredible season for the No. 1 seed Knights, who defeated No. 2 Prescott, 10-7, in the state championship game. The Knights finished the season 13-0 after dominating their competition from the beginning of the season to the end. St. Mary's scored an average of 28.46 points per game, kept opponents from scoring eight times and only gave up more than seven points once, in their regular-season finale against Mesquite. Once the playoffs arrived, St. Mary's showed they wanted to raise the golden football with a 19-7 win over No. 16 Arcadia, 33-0 win over No. 9 Eastmark and 20-3 win over No. 5 Scottsdale Christian. The Knights were tested in the title game, however. After opening the scoring against Prescott with a touchdown late in the first half, the Badgers responded to tie the game right before halftime. The teams would play a scoreless second half until St. Mary's was able to make a field goal with 46.6 seconds left in the fourth quarter to give them the state championship. St. Mary's now goes down in the history books as the first team to ever win a state championship in 4A, as the conference was newly added this year. >> Download the 12News app for the latest local breaking news straight to your phone.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Snoop Dogg has nearly as many ties to football as he does to rap music. The entertainer coached youth football for years and created the Snoop League, an after-school program for inner city Los Angeles youths. Snoop has been a guest analyst on football broadcasts and his son, Cordell Broadus, played Division I football. When Snoop took his latest step, becoming the sponsor of a bowl game, he had a demand: Find a way for all players in the game to receive name, image and likeness (NIL) money. “This was Snoop's idea,” said Kym Adair, executive director of the Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl presented by Gin & Juice. “He was having conversations with people he knows in the college football world and I got a call that said he wants us to be the first bowl to make this commitment and that's what we did.” The beneficiaries are Colorado State and Miami (Ohio), who will conclude their seasons Saturday at Arizona Stadium in the Arizona Bowl. The bowl is classified as a 501(c)(3), so all revenue goes to charity. And, being one of the few bowls not tied to ESPN, it opens the door for unique sponsorship opportunities. The bowl was previously sponsored by Barstool Sports and the digital media company used its own cast of characters on the broadcast, which was streamed on its digital platforms. Snoop Dogg takes over this year. The rapper/entertainer is the latest celebrity to sponsor a bowl, following the footsteps of Jimmy Kimmel and Rob Gronkowski at the LA Bowl. And, Snoop being Snoop, he wanted to put his own spin on his own bowl. “College football fans are exhausted by the constant talk around NIL, conference realignment, coach movement, transfer portal and super conferences,” Snoop said in a video posted on social media. “So it’s time that we get back to the roots of college football — when it was focused on the colleges, the players and the competition, the community, the fan experience and the pageantry.” With that will be an NIL component. The bowl can't pay players just for playing in the bowl, but both teams participated in football clinics on Friday and will get paid for their services. Other bowls have given single players NIL opportunities, but this is believed to be the first to offer it to every player on both teams. “I love the fact that the Arizona Bowl is unique and tries new things, and obviously having Snoop here is unique,” Colorado State coach Jay Norvell said. “The NIL component, it’s the future. It’s what football has become now. We think it’s fantastic for our kids and then the interaction with the kids is the hidden gem of the whole thing.” The NIL component of the Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl comes a month after a similar effort in The Players Era Festival basketball tournament in Las Vegas. The eight-team tournament said it paid out $9 million in NIL money to participating players for activities outside the competition. It also offered $50 million in NIL opportunities over the next three years for services and activities compliant with NCAA regulations. Are the Players Era Festival and Arizona Bowl the start of a new future? It is not out of the question in big-time college athletics, where schools are already preparing for the era of revenue sharing with players next year. “Revenue sharing between the players and the athletic departments is already on the horizon, so whether that takes the place of these types of arrangements or they're completely separate has yet to be determined," Adair said. "We're just trying to be flexible, ahead of the curve and make an impact any way we can.” Just the way Snoop wants it. Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.
